You're simply nutting all over the facts. Oerdin's main point, which was misleading but technically accurate is that 1995+6=2001 therefore 6 years without an attack (off by maybe 5 months or so, but generally accurate).

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator RubioComment

I don't think Bush will be blamed generally for 9/11, but I do think it's preposterous to say that the fact that no other major terrorist attacks happened on his watch will be a major positive down the line. "At least it was only 9/11" is hardly a compelling argument.Lime roots and treachery!

A good summary of DanS's position.Originally posted by DaShi
For one, you can't say what they will do.
The other is that these things clearly happened in Bush's term. Remember that DanS is arguing it is all Clinton's fault, which makes his argument rididculous.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

Well, conservatives do like to rewrite history to make their biggest losers into heroes. Look at Reagan.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

If fighting is sure to result in victory then you must fight....Originally posted by Darius871 View PostConsidering that Grant's most innovative strategy was just throwing wave after wave of conscripts into a meatgrinder until attrition and inadequate supply wore the enemy down, I wouldn't say that's a ringing endorsement.

And Bush...was good to Africa? Then again, I haven't read up on the Carter administration. From what I've heard, it involved a swimming attack rabbit and some malaise.Originally posted by Hauldren Collider View PostComment

Nonsense, Clinton bombed a Chinese embassy in peacetime and got away with it.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”
